   Cuiping hurriedly tugged at her sleeve: "Master said he'll test us on the 'Admonitions for Women' today..." Before she could finish speaking, the lacquer box suddenly felt light. An Jinyue had already grabbed the top layer of Poria cocos cake, and as she bit into the cake, her right hand gripped the silver spear and flicked it sharply.

"And we eat all organic food!" "No comparison, no harm... I've thought about it too..." "But being a ghost has its difficulties!" "No comparison, no harm... Now I know there are 'ghost shells' in the underworld too." "No, not really... The food here is actually quite good, at least it's all organic!" "So you're out of money... I'll cook some for you right away!" "No need, I don't even have enough to spend right now!" "Money makes the world go round!" "No need! You've already cooked enough!" It's wrong of you to come out and scare people in broad daylight..." "I wasn't trying to scare you!" I conveyed my mother's meaning through her lip movements, "It's just that you're too timid...
